For the month of January the Art and Music Center is sponsoring the Thursday at Noon Film Series with the theme "Dark Humor for Dark Days: the Movies of the Coen Brothers." This Thurday, January 14th, "Fargo" will be shown, followed consecutively by "The Big Lebowski," and "O Brother, Where Art Thou." The Library has a number of books about the Coen Brothers and the movies they've written and directed. SFPL also has some screenplays - in library parlance - called motion picture plays.
